So my dad is thinking about taking my S6 Edge over for me - however I am not sure how to get his Galaxy Gear to sync up with it. Can anyone please let me know what to download to get it to run? I believe it's still running Android.
Hey. He may have to update the Gear to Tizen then just use the Galaxy Apps to download the Gear Manager. That's what I did and all is running smooth.

Interesting! I tried to pair it this morning and it looked like it would work as is - (didn't pair because it would erase watch to factory settings). He swore up and down that it wouldn't work with anything newer than his S4.
Appreciate it!

I'm just looking for some advice about some good Note 3 ROMS (Canada) that will work well with the Galaxy Gear (such as native Bluetooth tethering). I also want to keep the Note and SPEN functionality. Thought it would be good to put this here to see what you guys and girls are using that works well with your Gear.

Darthstalker v4 and Dragonsair both are working well for me and meet what you are looking for. Dragonsair does not support the Samsung Apps Store though since it is an International ROM. I had to push the Gear Manager app to my phone manually.
I suggest making a CWM package of the gear needed files.
That way no matter what rom I flash, I flash my gear package afterwards and I know its compatible with it. Very easy.
I have a S4 mini with Rom 4.3. I would like to run watch styler on it. The Gear Manager work and I would like to be able to run watch style Manager on it. It is not in the Samsung app store for the S4 mini and the ones I load from the web, do not work. Is there a tweak that one can do or should I simply forget it.

Can anyone help us I have the same problem
I use the 1.0.8 Version on my Stock ROM. The newer Version wasn´t running on my S4 mini
Just in case anyone else has the same problem I did...
MapMyRide used to work fine on my note3 and gear1, but the last 2 updates on the phone app (3.0.4 and 3.0.3) don't work with the Galaxy Gear. On the watch, it tells me to install mapmyride on the phone. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both on the watch and phone. Rolled back to v2.9.5 on the phone and it's ok again.
I emailed them and this is the reply I got from MapMyRide :

The new updates are only compatible with Gear 2. I know this is frustrating, but we were told by Samsung that Gear 1 owners would be upgraded OTA to the Tizen-based Gear 2 OS. As a result, we planned our app upgrades to only support Gear 2.
We understand this upgrade has not happened. We have contacted Samsung to learn more and will update as soon as we find out more.

well this sounds like tizen could be coming soon
So, I updated to Tizen, but now MapMyRide is not showing up in the Samsung store in Gear Manager.
Is anyone else on Tizen able to see the MapMyRide app in the Gear Manager store?
I'm not sure if it's just because of my region (Thailand), although I could download MapMyRide for the Gear on Android...
Hello all, I am impatiently awaiting my new Gear 2 Neo.
While doing so, I would like to see (using my Windows PC or my Galaxy S4 phone) what applications / watchfaces etc. exist in the official Galaxy App store.
How can I do that?
Thank you for any pointers
Never mind - got my watch
Sounds like you got in the Rogers deal

Yep. Good deal for a cool watch
hey everyone, Just received a samsung galaxy gear smart watch and understand they are not naturally compatible but if anyone knows a work around to get most features to work. I like the style of it being just a plain watch but would love to use it to its fullest. Thanks for any help I get.
Someone has to know something. Still have yet to get gear manager to even install. Every single link on this forum crashes when I open it.
